I have been curious about why Tom Wilson moved his ballclub when he did. First, to Cleveland in 1931 (renaming them the Cubs), then back to Nashville that same year, then to Columbus and Detroit and back to Nashville in 1935, Washington, D.C. in 1936 and 1937, before settling in Baltimore beginning in 1938.
In this episode, I refer to Bob Luke's excellent book The Baltimore Elite Giants (2009 by John Hopkins University Press) and read portions that explain Wilson's rationale for each move.
Modern franchises have moved from city to city for various reasons. What was Wilson's logic? Listen and learn!
